SUMMARY:Tour of  “Materia Magica: Materiality and Ritual in the Greco-Roman World” exhibit
DESCRIPTION:Monday\, March 9 at 12:00 pm \nHatcher Library North\, First Floor\, Room 100J \nJoin Abigail Staub (MSP22 and PhD Candidate\, Interdepartmental Program in Mediterranean Art & Archaeology) for a tour of an exhibit she curated in the Hatcher Gallery “Materia Magica: Materiality and Ritual in the Greco-Roman World.” \nA half hour tour will be led by Abigail Staub (MSP22\, PhD Candidate in Interdepartmental Program in Mediterranean Art & Archaeology).  The exhibit is a collaboration and displays items from several University of Michigan units: the library’s Special Collections Research Center and Papyrology Collection\, the Museum of Natural History\, and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology.  Artifacts include a diverse array of items which were created to communicate with and call upon various unseen\, supernatural forces for aid and protection. While the objects on display are disparate at first glance\, ranging from lead tablets and amulets to papyrus and parchment leaves\, they all share a common thread: they have long been labeled as “magical” in traditional Western scholarship.  However\, each of these artifacts is better understood on a broad spectrum of ancient ritual\, from subversive and transgressive acts to highly social and visible ones. The exhibit highlights the objects’ oft-overlooked material dimensions\, asking us to consider how qualities like color\, texture\, and weight shaped an object’s perceived efficacy and meaning. \nThe tour is limited to 10 attendees\, so please sign up as soon as possible!

SUMMARY:Museums@Noon presentation by History of Art students
DESCRIPTION:Traversing Mountains and Waters: Visits to the Centennial Exhibition at the National Palace Museum of Taipei \nSpeakers: History of Art PhD students – Qi Zheng\, Meichen Liu\, Yueling Li\, Star Song \nMarch 23 from 12:00 – 1:00 pm \nTappan Room 180 and online via Zoom. \nAt the conclusion of 2025\, the National Palace Museum of Taipei celebrated its centennial with displays highlighting a hundred years of collection\, preservation\, exhibition\, and education. This landmark exhibition series\, “Enduring Legacy\,” is recognized globally as a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to view more than a hundred masterpieces: exceptional treasures and artworks housed in this prestigious museum’s collection. Many of the objects have never been on public display\, and others have appeared only rarely due to conservation restrictions. \nIn this presentation\, four graduate students from the Department of History of Art will share their experiences visiting the museum. Addressing the artworks and the exhibits\, the presenters will discuss their impressions and the potential trajectories of another century of museology.
